edited November 2015 in Writing
I tried to change the name of my blog this morning and now I can't find it under the old name or the new one!
The old address was http://lizy-expat-writer.blogspot.com
I changed it to http://lizy-writes.blogspot.com

I went into Settings and edited each field. Clearly this was wrong, but how can I put it right?
I want to change the name without losing all the stuff I have on my blog.

Can anyone help?

    I don't think it's done by changing the name like that - you have to pay to change the name, from the one you are given free at the beginning. I'd mail Blogspot and ask...

    I Googled "Where's my blog" and went to Blogger "My blog's disappeared" and found it. Phew! Don't know why 'lizy-writes' didn't find it but I've bookmarked the page so at least I can see it. Will you please click on this link and tell me if it takes you there?

    It just takes a few mins to update when you first did it is all, Lizy :) Don't worry, you won't lose anything.

    Nonsense - I didn't have to pay to change the name of my blog.

    You only have to pay if you want a non .blogspot address.

    Looks like I've done it !

    I must learn not to panic, I must learn not to panic...

    thanks for your help, folks :)

    Aaah... so you can change at any time, just as long as you keep blogspot, or presumably 'wordpress' in the title? That's interesting, I have several blogs i'd like to change the name of.

    Oooh, yes - didn't you have someone interested in something if only you lived here?
  • LizyLizy
    Various agents said they weren't interested because I lived abroad. That's not the same as "Contact me the minute you get back" but once I'm sorted I shall hit the list again.

    Yes working okay.

    If you use wordpress and apply a domain you pay, but in blogger you can apply a domain bought from elsewhere without having to pay blogger/google, it can just be a bit slow...

    Lizy has a hit list, Baggy has a massive joint - who exactly am I mixing with here???

    Phew, glad you found it!

    And having found it I've written my first 100 word story for a month!
